THANK YOU Thank you Church for the love, support, and encouragement you have given my family and me over the past 2 years (especially this past month). We are extremely thankful to serve here and look forward to many, many more years of “making disciples” together. Thank you again for allowing me to be your pastor. It’s a tremendous privilege and honor and one that I thank God for daily. Sincerely, The Beckwith Family

Thank You FBC Church Family, Thank you so much for helping the Kids for Christ Carnival run smoothly again this year! From baking cakes, working games, setting up, and tearing down, I want to express my thanks to you! We could not have created the safe/fun environment without you! In Him, Jackie McMinn Bible Drill is a wonderful BIBLE opportunity for both children DRILL (3rd thru 6th grade) and students (7th thru 12th grade) in the church. Participating children and students will develop skills in the use of the Bible, increase their knowledge of the Bible, and learn how to apply the Bible to everyday life experiences. Children’s Bible Drill is Wednesdays at 4:45 p.m. in Room 209. Youth Bible Drill is Sundays at 4:45 p.m.
